Oh man..I love these pics and I love driving through the area when I'm down from the northern burbs visiting friends..I agree with an earlier poster on here...I'd sell five newer suburban homes to have that house pictured in the last set of pics (with the dark SUV in the driveway)...that house and its setting is perfect...thanks hamilton and lakewooder...

Good links, but I liked your photos the best. I've never been there, where exactly is Lakewood. I know it's in East Dallas, but where exactly? Thanks for the pics!

Noooo - I am a Guy Williams fan, though....I was wearing a Panama hat and spent much of the time outside in the back BS-ing with some old buddies. I do admit to dancing on the stage with a posse when The Cure and some 80s tunes were played.
